Overview
Established in 2003, the Athens Voice paper is a free press weekly edition released every Thursday with a distribution network that includes Athens, Thessaloniki and 20 more cities in Greece. The cover page of the newspaper consists of submissions from local and international artists. This has led to the establishment of one of the major art events of the city, "Art on the Front Page", with an exhibition of the original artworks at the Benakis Museum.
Athens Voice and athensvoice.gr contain original material, articles and comments on current socio-political affairs and stories on arts, books, fashion, urban culture, travel, events, nightlife and culinary trends. The online version, with over 2,5 million unique visitors monthly, combines the articles published in the print version together with new material.
Athens Voice Radio 102.5 FM began broadcasting in 2017.
It has expanded through extra editions (Lookmag for women, Homemag for home and design, the Thessaloniki-based monthly magazine Soul for young lifestyle, the Summer and Winter Guides), the organizing of cultural events (the cover exhibition at the Benakis Museum, First Sound live music) and its participation in others (Fashion Week, European Music Day).
Its annual travel guides (City & Islands Summer Guide) are published in English. The English online version bestofathens.gr and bestofthessaloniki.gr combines the articles published in the print version with additional travel material.
